Liner Notes

Made the instrumental 2 years ago during FAWM 2017, planning on putting a rap to it, but nothing really worked out whenever I tried. This time around, I decided to try making it a pop song, or pop inspired song, along the lines of Joji and similar artists. So I wrote some lyrics and gave it a go. Let me know whether or not you think the style or melody fits the music or if it clashes. The music is made completely from samples of other songs modified and rearranged and what not.

Lyrics

The less we seek the more we gain
How much does it cost to feel your pain?
If I ever crave the sunrise
Please check to see if I'm alive
There's fear plastered on your face
Blindly speeding up the pace
Never could remember the name
But could never forget the burn of the flame

CHORUS
As we confront
The barrel of the gun
As we confront
The barrel of the gun

In the heat of the moment the moment you're in heat
Ripping the bones out of the meat
Save me the details and show me the way
Help me to live another day
Let the message linger in the air
We have plenty of parts to spare
Sick to my stomach, a packet of lies
I save my energy, my anger dies
